What our users say


"For TUI Musement, Airbyte cut development time in half and enabled dynamic customer experiences."


“Airbyte helped us accelerate our progress by years, compared to our competitors. We don’t need to worry about connectors and focus on creating value for our users instead of building infrastructure. That’s priceless. The time and energy saved allows us to disrupt and grow faster.”

"With Airbyte, we could just push a few buttons, allow API access, and bring all the data into Google BigQuery. By blending all the different marketing data sources, we can gain valuable insights."
Begin by ensuring that both your ClickHouse and Oracle databases are properly set up and accessible. Confirm network connectivity between the systems and ensure that you have the necessary administrative privileges to both databases. Install the necessary client tools for each database system on your host machine, such as `clickhouse-client` for ClickHouse and `sqlplus` or `SQL Developer` for Oracle.
Use ClickHouse’s built-in tools to export the data you need. Execute a query to select the data and output it in a CSV format, which can be easily imported into Oracle. For example:
```bash
clickhouse-client --query="SELECT * FROM your_table" --format=CSV > data.csv
```
Ensure that the exported CSV file is stored in a location accessible for transfer to the Oracle environment.
Transfer the exported CSV file to the server or environment where your Oracle database is hosted. This can be done using secure copy protocols like SCP, SFTP, or any other secure file transfer method appropriate for your environment.
Log in to your Oracle database and create a table structure that matches the schema of your data being transferred. This involves defining the appropriate data types and constraints that correspond to your ClickHouse data. Use a script similar to the following, adjusting the table name and column definitions as necessary:
```sql
CREATE TABLE your_table (
column1 VARCHAR2(100),
column2 NUMBER,
...
);
```
Import the CSV data into a temporary staging table in Oracle using SQL*Loader or Oracle's external tables feature. For SQL*Loader, prepare a control file that specifies how to load the data, and run the loader:
```plaintext
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'path/to/data.csv'
INTO TABLE staging_table
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
(column1, column2, ...)
```
Execute the following command:
```bash
sqlldr userid=username/password control=your_control_file.ctl
```
After loading the data into the staging table, run SQL queries to validate the integrity of the data. Check for missing, duplicate, or incorrect data entries and clean them as necessary. This step ensures that only accurate and clean data is moved to the final destination table.
Once the data is validated and clean, transfer it from the staging table to the final destination table using SQL operations. This can be done with an `INSERT INTO ... SELECT` operation:
```sql
INSERT INTO your_final_table (column1, column2, ...)
SELECT column1, column2, ...
FROM staging_table;
```
After transferring the data, you can remove the staging table if it is no longer needed.
By following these steps, you can manually transfer data from ClickHouse to an Oracle database without relying on third-party tools or connectors.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.
An open-source database management system for online analytical processing (OLAP), ClickHouse takes the innovative approach of using a column-based database. It is easy to use right out of the box and is touted as being hardware efficient, extremely reliable, linearly scalable, and “blazing fast”—between 100-1,000x faster than traditional databases that write rows of data to the disk—allowing analytical data reports to be generated in real-time.
What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
